If the 4th installment hopes to win me back it's going to have to have epic levels of awesome. Too many villains and an unnecessary emo binge made the 3rd one a thing of nightmares.

I don't have high hopes for this if Carnage is involved. Quite frankly they're out of 'epic' villains now that Doc Ock and both Green Goblins are dead. I am completely against bringing Eddie Brock back, especially if you gave him a complete face-heel turn and made him good just so that he can 'help Spidey save the day'. I'd say the classics are the way to go here, like Rhino, Vulture, Shocker or Lizard. But if they can somehow pull a good Kraven story, that would be worth watching a million times over.

WHAT?? Oh christ this shit is bananas! Stop with the whole DC comic movies or however Spiderman started.
Marvel, love. Although DC comic movies aren't much better.

I heard he's actually trying to get the Vampire guy (forgot the name) to be the new villian for it.
Edward Cullen?

Personally, this is just Stan Lee trying to continue to leech the Marvel fanboys for all their money. Let it die, already!

I don't care. It's gonna suck. Period. There's no way it can be even slightly good after the mess that was Spider-Man 3.

I personally want to see Ezekiel and Morlun in the next one. But if that's not possible..........KRAVEN!!!! And they could end it like Kraven's Last Hunt!

Thoughts? No
Concerns? No
Rants? No

...Fear...
Seriously, It will either be average or will kill Spiderman, which may not be a bad thing after that terrible/hilarious scene from 3 where he gets the emo haircut and acts all cool, specially when he dances outside of that store. It was hilarious, but the dignity was gone.

I reckon Lizard will make an entrance, and Peter will have to deal with his mutations (where he mutates into the dreaded MAN-SPIDER!!!)
That would be cool.

This is where I'd usually go on about the milking of a franchise and that if any of you want to make a statement about the film-maker's mentality, you should NOT GO and see it.

But, I expect the usual list of bull-crap excuses like "I'm going to see it to see how bad it is/to laugh at it/nothing better to do."

Paying to see the film and hating it is THE SAME to the industry if you went and enjoyed yourself. You've paid your money, filled their pockets and given the impression that this lazy way of film making is the way forward. And people wonder why they studios keep churning this shite out.

Thanks.

I think they should bring Joel Schumacher in to direct, camping it up to balance out the emo crap of the third one.

does anyone knoe what Carnage is made out of??

it looks lik Venoms alien skin type but *burnt orangy red* and way
kooler.
Venom's alien symbiotic and a jailed psychopathic murder.

Carnage and Dr.Connors get my vote. I know Raimi is interested in the sinister 6 (don't do it!) and the life vampire, Morbius (worth a go!) and Kraven the hunter (why?)...the series peaked at number 2 though...

I have to agree, id love to see carnage brought in as i never really was able to grasp carnage's story, i never actually found out how he came to be, maybe the episode where carnage and venom work together
Then getting spidey and the xmen etc together to stop them, a combination of marvel characters in a film would be interesting to see pulled off, granted how effective it would be i couldnt say, still the effort to do it none the less would be apeasing

Carnage and Lizard would work best, in my not-professional-at-all opinion. Mainly 'cause of Connors' involvement in the last two movies, and Carnage 'cause he's awesome.
Because Venom was handled sooooo well... /sarcasm

I hate Carnage, too much of Todd McFarlanes fuck headed "XTREME!!!!!!!!"ness in that character.

"NOT ONLY IS HE A SYMBIOTE BUT HE'S A CRAZY PSYCHO SERIAL KILLER OMFG SO BADASS XTREME!!!!! HE ALSO MAKES AXES AND KNIVES AND KILLS PEOPLE, XTREME!!!!"

Yeah, I fucking hate Carnage...

I prefer the villains that, had circumstances been different, could have been heroes. They're a lot more interesting than "XTREME BADASSES" like Venom and Carnage.
In all fairness Venom only became Venom because Eddie was desperate. In a different universe he could have been a hero.
lol in a different universe he was a hero, but thats going wwaaaaaay to deep into the fanboy arcs :p
Haha don't worry, you're on the Escapist you can do that sorta thing here. Didn't know of that though, I watch an episode when there was lots of different spidermen from alternate unniverses but it got a bit trippy for me by then.

Wouldn't bother me too much if they used the lizard or the symbiotes properly but I would like to see more of madam web and maybe the could just re-do that episode with all the different dimension spideys and X-men colliding. (Or they should definitely include "the amazing bag man")

Time to get spider-nerd on you.
Carnage is the offspring of venoms symbiote (they reproduce a-sexually) which then merged with a psychopathic prisoner.
Apparently its also in a symbiotes nature to hate and want to kill its offspring, which is why Venom has an overpowering urge to kill carnage, even if it means working together with Spiderman.

Why???

I thought 2 was too many.

If they make a Pirates 4 then I may have to kill myself.
Actually there is going to be 7 Pirates movies.
Dear god... please tell me that you're joking...

I honestly... I can't take another Pirates movie

As long as they don't make Peter Parker dance again, it'll probably be ok.

I just want them to include Carnage and have him go on his rampage through New York. That way if the movie is still terrible we at least get to see an angry symbiote ripping a few hundred people to bits.

lol, it seems carnage has become a favorite, as i mentioned before though, i think the next big marvel hit would be an alliance of some well known marvel characters, also, i think in the 4th one a good badguy would deffinatley be lizardman, or the kingpin, maybe not so much the kingpin though, as he was just a fat man with a big tower... lol
